She'll be missed

Last Saturday Sean and I were able to go down to Seattle and say goodbye to our sweet sweet friend, Tori. She has up and left. Back to Nebraska she has gone. We're going to miss her. Even though we didn't get to see her a whole lot while in Seattle, just knowing she was close was such a treat. A ferry ride and an hour and a half drive sounds better then a ferry ride and a 3 day drive. I was really hoping and praying she'd meet her husband here in Washington so she'd be here forever. Don't worry, my prayer now is that she'll meet him in Nebraska but that he'll be from Washington :)

Karen and Tori put on an awesome party. Even Liz flew in for the weekend! We watched some football - Go Huskers! And yes, I'm the only lame one who didn't wear her Nebraska sweatshirt. If I could rewind that day I would go back and dig under that pile of clothes that was sitting in my closet and find my red Nebraska sweatshirt and put it on. But I can't do that. And so you're stuck seeing me in a gray shirt and navy sweatshirt. Karen made some awesome taco soup and some delicious caramel corn! There were bowls of candy set around wherever the eye could see - junior mints, starburst, twizzlers, almond joys...it was awesome. During half time we went down to the local farmers market and got some pumpkins to carve. One thing I love about these girls is we have fun no matter what we do. It was a fun day, but definitely bitter sweet.

And just because this song reminds me of Tori from that day I thought I'd leave you with this little version by Nataly Dawn.  It's fun and quirky and hopefully makes you smile.



You'll be missed, Tori.  I love you!
